Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (8 ounce) can refrigerated crescent rolls
2 tablespoons dried parsley
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon dried basil
2 tablespoons butter
4 cups sliced zucchini
1 cup chopped onion

2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon honey mustard, or more to taste
6 slices mozzarella cheese
¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

  • Unroll and separate the crescent rolls into a 10-inch glass pie pan, pressing dough into the pie pan, pinching together seams. Set aside.
  • Mix together dried parsley, salt, pepper, garlic powder, dried oregano, and dried basil in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

ZUCCHINI & SAUSAGE PIE



Zucchini & Sausage Pie image

This recipe comes from Picnic! by Edith Stovel. Even if you're not a fan of zucchini you'll enjoy this. I like using hot Italian sausage for the sausage.

Provided by cando

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 cups shredded zucchini
1 onion, chopped
1/2 lb bulk sausage
2 cups swiss cheese, grated
1 cup milk
1/2 cup half-and-half
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1 tablespoon butter, melted

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat and sauté the zucchini and onion for 5 minutes or until soft. Put the zucchini and onion in a large bowl.
  • Add the sausage to the pan. Break up the sausage and cook over medium heat until no longer pink. Drain the sausage and add to the bowl. Mix zucchini, onion and sausage. Then add the remaining ingredients.
  • Mix well and pour into a 9x9 inch baking pan. Bake for 40 minutes at 400 degrees F. Cut into squares. Serve warm or cold.
  • Prep time is a guess!

Nutrition Facts : Calories 372.1, Fat 25.7, SaturatedFat 10.4, Cholesterol 113.2, Sodium 267.5, Carbohydrate 18.1, Fiber 1, Sugar 1.7, Protein 17.2

Tips:

  • Use a variety of zucchini. Different types of zucchini have different flavors and textures. Try using a mix of green and yellow zucchini, or even some pattypan squash, for a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Don't overcook the zucchini. Zucchini is a delicate vegetable that can easily become mushy. Cook it just until it is tender-crisp, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this pie, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that melts well. Cheddar, mozzarella, and Gruyère are all good choices.
  • Season the pie well. Salt and pepper are essential seasonings for this pie, but you can also add other herbs and spices to taste. Try adding some garlic powder, onion powder, or smoked paprika.
  • Let the pie cool slightly before serving. This will help the pie to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Zucchini brunch pie is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's a great way to use up leftover zucchini, and it's also a healthy and satisfying meal. With its flaky crust, creamy filling, and cheesy topping, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
